    Why wouldn't you get the one with the magnetic tip? I don't see why not. If your shooting wood to concrete it's just a regular tip at that point. 

     

    Other question ion will this completely replace the need for a Ramset .27 ?

    Not quite since the longest pins will be 2 1/4 so hang on to your Ramset for now. General rule of thumb is 1 inch penetration into concrete so if your nailing a 2 x 4, you still need a 2 1/2 inch pin

    Just coming back from Key West which was directly hit by Hurricane Irma and I beg to differ.

     

    I don't believe in battery chainsaws.

     

    A guy had the makita 2 battery was seriously a joke. 

     

     

    Well see, that was the problem right there.... It was a Makita

    Interesting, I know that with the DeWalt Scroll Saw, Type 1 meant it was made in Canada, and Type 2 was made in China. 

    Partly, yes... On the type 1 which I have, the upper arm drive rod can work loose and begin to rattle inside the arm. I took mine apart and reamed the inside out a bit... On the type 2 they fixed this issue...

    But even then, crown can be layed flat on the bed to cut

  5. You have the hoodie which is from this past winter. Original ones from the year before didn't have it, but yours should have a wash label on the inside.

     

    Couple things to keep in mind. No heat, and don't wring it dry. Either can harm the heating elements. I own a vest, and don't have it with me, but if I remember right, the label says mild wash, do not bleach and tumble dry on lowest setting... Personally, I do the wash, but don't have the guts to throw it in the dryer so let it hang dry...

  6. Drive chain 115 goes from the gear box to the rear roller. Then, on the opposite side, chain 101 goes from the rear roller to the front roller. If one is spinning freely, it is most likely eith the chain, or one of the sprockets on the opposite side of the gear box...

  7. Also you can get cheap blades anywhere with that size.

    Careful with the hook angle on the blades though. Miter saws are best with a real slight positive or a negative hook angle. A typical blade for a circ saw is about 15 degree positive which on a miter, could be dangerous in that it will actually try to lift the wood as your cutting and gives you more blow out. The negative pushes it back against the fence as it cuts with the blow out only out the back of the piece...

     

    Make sense?

  8. What type number is it? That will be next to the model number on the drill...

    The type 1 is the one using the conversion kit because to replace the chuck, you literally have to replace the entire transmission. The kit turns the type 1 into a type 2...

     On the type 2 and 3, as framer said above, there is a screw inside that is a torx 20 LH thread.... Pull that screw, then the chuck should unscew in the right direction...

  9. Stopped making it in 2009, shortly after they acquired Delta, and just before they launched the new UniSaw... At the time, it seemed Delta would be for shop saws, while DEWALT stuck with portable tools...
